I have noticed a couple of times not that i will sync a BT device but a little later its removed from the list. Any thoughts? Thanks
Update. I have realized that this happens everytime i do a softreset using rebootnow app. Has anyone else had this problem? Thanks
Also this happens when i turn my phone off... no one else has this problem ???
sorry to keep pushing this thread but its the most annoying bug i've ever had. I tested almost everthing except a hard reset but whenever i do a softreset my bt devices that i have paired with get erased.... any guesses
I'm having similar problems - if I turn the phone off & back on again, it won't connect to my car. The bluetooth menu still shows that it's paired, but it won't connect (even if I try to manually connect). The only way to get it to connect again is to turn bluetooth off & back on - then it connects automatically.
I've only seen it delete paired devices from the list once - that was when I rooted the phone. It hasn't deleted them since.

well my phone is rooted so i'm hoping thats not the problem. Also I just made a lengthy video to show the problem and i will post it in a little bit on here so others can see the problem.
so for some reason i can't get the video of my friends iphone 4 but i was looking through the settings.db file and i found some interesting stuff about the bluetooth devices so i was wondering if anyone could look at this and tell me if there is something wrong also can a couple of people post their settings.db file on here so i can compare. thanks
I Get This Too!
For me it seems to only "remember" the devices that have phone capability turned on.
For instance, it never loses my Jawbone headset but it always loses my Kensington LiquidAux which I use to play music through my car's stereo.
But if I turn on the LiquidAux's phone option, the Captivate remembers it.
I've also paired it with the Motorola HT820 stereo bluetooth headset and it seems to remember that one as well but that has phone option too. I'll have to try turning off the phone function and see if it remembers then.

yes that is the exact same problem I have, If i disable the phone option for the BT car stereo then in gets erased when i restart my phone but if i keep it enabled then it doesn't seem to get erased. WTF can someone provide a logical explanation for this or can someone who is rooted give a counter example
My phone is rooted and currently running the JH2 ROM.
But I have experienced this problem with the original ROM as well.
I've tested with three different Bluetooth stereo/phone devices and the result was the same with all three: remove phone option and the profile eventually disappears.
As long as you don't disable the phone option of your bluetooth device it should remain in the Captivate's profile list.

No, I'm saying that it definitely DOES have the problem. So it does not appear to be ROM specific. There is a JH3 ROM out now that I think I will try today. I'll post my findings once I've had a chance to experiment.
Also, I'd like to know if anyone running any of the other modified i9000 ROMs, like JM5, is having the same problem.
Well, I just installed the JH3 ROM but the problem is still there.
Looks like we'll have to wait for Froyo and hope for the best.
Problem FIXED in froyo ji6
I just want to let everyone know who has had this problem that it is fixed in the leaked froyo build jfyi
I can't get the Captivate to connect via Bluetooth to anything other than my car.
It pairs with my Windows 7 computer, but will not connect.
I've even tried connecting via Bluetooth to Kies without success.
Is there a way to do file transfer via Bluetooth?

Anyone else seeing some odd behavior with bluetooth pairings? I keep on having to re-pair with my laptop (Win 7 64x) and my car (Audi S4). Complete pain.
I use it with my computer (Win 7 32-bit) and my Motorola bluetooth headset, no problems since I first paired each (sometime in July).
I have the same issue at times....quite frustrating and I have found no way to stop it from happening....
Yep. I get this too. My only fix has been to turn off my plantronics earpiece and when turned back on it connects.

I am JH3 as well, FWIW. Dunno if JF6 gave me the same problem. I now have 3 of the same device in my Win7 BT folder. I also remember seeing the BT settings reverting to old ones.
Problem I keep on having is that the media profile, or A2DP, setting won't enable when I turn on my stereo bluetooth headset. It'll sometimes reestablish the media profile if I keep on turning off and on the bluetooth setting on the phone and headset, but most of the time I just end up having to re-pair my it. Would be awesome to know if anyone knew how to fix this.

I suppose I should just throw in there...I never had the problem with JF6. I'm running JH7 now and still have not experienced it, will report if I notice anything.
More Info
While I don't have a solution, I have researched this problem a bit.
In my experience the problem happens when I disable the phone capability of a device.
For instance, I have a pair of stereo bluetooth headphones that I can make calls with, as well as listen to music and other audio.
If I edit the profile and disable the phone function, the whole device disappears from my phone if I reboot it. If I leave the phone option enabled, it does not disappear.
Disabling the media option does not appear to have any affect as long as the phone option remains active.
My rom is stock.
The pairings don't disappear, but my motorrokr s9-hd disconnects and I have to restart the player and then press the headsets connect button. Just hitting the connect button only activates the display, but doesn't start the player. The way the headset connects just isn't right.
There are things like the headset disconnects and the browser crashing, that sometimes don't happen for days and then will happen repeatedly in minutes.
I do hope that froyo fixes some of these problems...
I have some similar problems. I have a Spracht AURA Mobile BT Speakerphone in my car and I don't use it that often but when I turn it on it doesn't seem to keep the pairing every time. It worked fine with my TouchPro on WinMo.
Another strange thing is that when it is working and I turn off the BT on the phone then come back in the car and turn it on again and it pairs, it immediately starts redialing the last number I called. VERY annoying. Fortunately I've caught it every time but I don't know why it would do that.
Hey guys
Strange issue here. I paired my phone with my car through Bluetooth to make and receive calls using the car audio system. It works well.
However, if I fire Google Navigation, I can't here the spoken instructions through either the phone speaker or the car speakers.
I was not expecting navigation audio to be routed through Bluetooth audio, but I did expect the navigation instructions to come out of the phone speaker, as it does on the nexus one or the vibrant both running Android 2.2.
Is anybody else having this issue?
Thanks

did you flash a new kernel or anything because the kernel in the dev thread is known to break bluetooth
if it does this stock out of the box try doing a system restore and then take it back if its still acting up because bluetooth should turn on
yea i used the pkg one that had SU etc on it. Suppose Ill have to flash back to stock arg.
just so peeps know with the bt issue flashing this fixed

Bluetooth doesn't stream audio to car - what's your experience
I've got a Ford Edge with the new Ford MyTouch/Sync system.
The Nexus S connects to the Bluetooth just fine; makes and receives calls perfectly. It will also connect to the Bluetooth Audio Stream for music playback, but won't play the audio over the car's speakers. Also, sometimes it connects, holds the connection for just a few seconds and then disconnects. My SGS and Nexus One work as expected, as does the iPhone, so it doesn't appear to be an issue with the car.
Seems like a bug in the NS to me.
I'm curious if others are streaming audio/music to their auto's BT system without issues?
It would be especially nice to know what anyone else with a new Ford/Lincoln is experiencing, but I'd also like to compile a list of what cars work and what don't.
I'm going to have to find some other BT device that I can test the stream on to see if my phone works with it or not. Maybe my Nexus One dock? I've never used that to stream audio even with the Nexus One.
In terms of troubleshooting my problem, I've already rebooted the phone and the car, un-paired and re-paired the phone with the car.
I've got a Mazda RX8 R3 and the NS will pair with the in-built car BT but drops the connection after a few minutes. It then refuses to connect again unless I re-pair, then a few minutes later it drops and we're back to square one.
The car's in-built BT worked fine with my HTC Desire, Hero, iPhone 3G and Blackberry 9700 so I'm guessing the Nexus S has a Bluetooth issue.
Mine works fine on my aftermarket Sony receiver.
having issues with bluetooth audio too, stream keeps breaking every now and then. Any fixes?
I've only streamed to the car stereo and had no issues. The phone is only about 10cms away.
Haven't tried my BT headphones yet, maybe range is the issue.
*On original ROM.

tried placing the phone right next the the BT reciever and same problem. Only tried this once, maybe I'll try rebooting the phone.
no problem here
using Bionix 1.2
You're lucky, I can't even get BT music streaming to work with my car. No other BT devices to check with besides my Nexus One dock, which has no speakers.
BT works great for the phone, though, to make and receive calls.
Problem with Bluetooth
I cant get to work bluetooth on Nexus S.
When i enable it and try to send something from SGS to Nexus S it says me "This tranfer was canceled by the user" (Nexus S)
SGS says "Remote device rejected your request"
When i try send something from Nexus S, but use not function Send, i use function Bluetooth - it says me "The application Bluetooth Share (process com.android.bluetooth) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again"
I tried factory reset, wipe cache, tried flash any other roms, but got NOTHING helpt me. I have this problem on 2 phones (2xNS).
Can someone give me files of BlueTooth share? (com.android.bluetooth)
That's an interesting problem you have. Mine did the same thing transfering from my computer to my NS. I just tried it again when I read your post (to make completely sure what the error was) and it has automagically fixed its self.
Well, seems i need a file \system\app\bluetooth.apk
Solved - Finally following setup works for me
No ICS Roms worked for me, but following ROM is working perfectly. I have tried for a day and no issue. As soon as I start my car bluetooth connected and BOTH Phone and Media Profiles remain connected. Audio Track information displays perfectly!!

ROM: Skyrocket CM9 RC 2: cm-9.0.0-RC2-skyrocket.zip
Radio: Radio for AT&T and Rogers: Radio_RIL__I727UCLE2.zip
Bluetooth Device: Car Honda CRV 2012
Background:
1) I have two bluetooth devices that I use with my phone. Blueant Q2 bluetooth headset and Bluetooth enabled car audio system in Honda CRV (factory not after market)
Note: This works fine in all GB ROMS
Behavior
1) Bluetooth is different in GB and ICS. Go to Settings => Bluetooth and look at Paired Devices.
- In ICS you will see a Settings wheel next to Device Name. Click on that and you can see "Phone" and "Media" Profiles.
- GB does not have these profiles separate.
See attached image for the state of Phone and Media profiles after I start my car.
2) Bluetooth "Phone" Profile does not auto-connect. "Media" Profile auto connects and works fine. I need to go to Bluetooth => Settings => Click on wheel next to Device Name => Check the checkbox next to "Phone" profile everytime to connect the phone and send-recieve calls using Bluetooth.
3) Steps to duplicate the issue
I see bluetooth icon seeing it connect
Few seconds later I see message "Samsung SGS ..... has been disconnected"
At this time "Media" is connected and "Phone" profile is not. In Honda it shows that Phone is disconnected (even though "Media" is connected and Music plays fine
Finally If I try to connect to Phone via Honda it always fails. But if I open Bluetooth settings and select "Phone" profile it connects and remains connected.
More Information
My guess it that in GB there were no separate "Phone" and "Media" profiles. Phone would just connect to car or headset via BT and stay connected. With ICS the phone is initiating two processes. First Phone profile connects and within few seconds when Media profiles tries to connect. This somehow throws off my Car and my BlueAnt Q2 BT and it drop the BT Phone profile connection

Bluetooth
New public methods fetchUuidsWithSdp() and getUuids() let apps determine the features (UUIDs) supported by a remote device. In the case of fetchUuidsWithSdp(), the system performs a service discovery on the remote device to get the UUIDs supported, then broadcasts the result in an ACTION_UUID intent.

I have the EXACT same issues with my 2012 Honda CRV (Non nav). (well, I’m working on this on behalf of a friend, so their car)I hooked it up to another my car with a Pioneer Avic X920bt head unit, and it was doing the same thing. I then did a firmware upgrade and initialization through KIES and now my Avic loads up, but the Honda is doing the same thing still. Although, before I did the wipe the Honda would disconnect and reconnect randomly and it would take forever for the phone profile to connect and it looked like the bluetooth would turn on and off and “freak out”. So far it seems stable, but I have yet to have much time with it.

I have a Galaxy Nexus with 4.0.4 that worked perfectly fine. Both profiles reconnect upon turning a car on and off. I wonder if Honda is detecting the kind of phone and sending the way to connect based on that and not by what OS version it is. Just a complete guess. Also, I tried with a T mobile Galaxy S II and the same thing occurs on it's ICS update.

Sorry, T-mobile Galaxy S II does same thing as the Skyrocket. Yup, same thing..honda says connection failed when trying to connect through the car. I sent Honda an email and all I got was a generic responce about turning your wifi off and repairing.
Same behavior with Infiniti G37S
I have the same behavior of my AT&T Skyrocket with SKY-ICS 4.2F6-2.1 and 2011 Infiniti G37S. It is driving me nuts that I have to manually reconnect Bluetooth every time. Furthermore, it tends to disconnect Bluetooth randomly and I have to reconnect it again.

It would be great if one of the dev can find a way to install GB Bluetooth files on ICS. GB worked perfectly for me.
A Google search shows a lot of people have the exact same problem. It might be safe to say that this is a known problem and hopefully it will be resolved soon..

I have more confidence in our dev's fixing this or finding a work around. It might be as easy as replacing ICS BT libraries with GB ones. However I am unable to get their attention.
I have the same issue but with a Dice Mediabridge installed in my BMW. Works for about 10 min then drops, will reconnect with a reboot. My Jawbone Icon stays connected and works fine, but that just had a recent firmware update. I hope this is resolved soon.
Finally a ICS Rom that works for me - see OP
So, what is so different in that ROM? How can the 'fix' from that ROM be applied onto other ROMs?

BUMP: Still have issue
The last poster says issue comes back even running ROM. I have been dealing with this most annoying issue and still have it. I noticed when i uninstall Pandora app, its goes away. Seems to be a bug in the bluetooth stack and Pandora. Were you guys running Pandora at the time? Seems weird this thread just died with no resolution. Anybody care to explain to me what the fix is if any? does this problem follow the Galaxy S4? I am using an LG HBS-700 earpiece but it did the same thing on my Plantronics. is there a Jellybean available for this version? if so, ATT has not released it for over the air. Thanks.

Thanks for your suggestion, it was actually helpful but as far as the comment about the age of thread.. if someone is suffering from the exact problem i dont think it matters much.
So, I wanted to let anyone else struggling with this bluetooth issue what worked for me. I downloaded and installed Samsung KIES software on my PC as suggested above, performed a full backup of phone and made sure it was fully charged. Now, there will be an upgrade to JellyBean from within KIES. UPGRADE! after upgrade perform a restore and most all your stuff comes back.
** A few of my games/apps installed on my SD Card kept uninstalling itself. this is a bug in JB. Go to Settings, APPS, and move the app to your phone memory and that fixes it. **
Other than that, i have been running the update for a couple of weeks without all the annoying bluetooth issues and its like having a new phone!!! LOVE THE UPDATE.
Only issue is i have more battery drain than before. i have read that installing Jellybean clean install fixed that but will have to research how to do that. Good luck.. hope this helps someone else.
P.S. this is update is NOT available over the air, so dont look for it from your phone. only the KIES software gets you this update.
When using Stock rom or any other Sense based rom when auto connecting to car radio I get no audio.
The phone and radio will both show connected, and audio tracks show playing but no sound. Sometimes, and only sometimes a bluetooth toggle in settings will fix the issue. Other times when i toggle it looses the connection period.
Ive reset my radio and phone but nothing helps. The kicker is when using GPE or an AOSP rom the connect and auto play every single time.
I like Sense and really want to use it...any one else see similar issue?
Are you using the HTC stock "Music" app? Basic question, but can you confirm the volume level of the Bluetooth output is high enough (audio volume is handled differently than Handsfree volume)?
